You could have claimed an income tax rebate.
HMRC have scale rate payments for both the UK and overseas, whereby you are entitled to be reimbursed by your employer of the cost of meals over the course of your trip. Even if your stingy employer won't reimburse you, you could have claimed the dispensations as allowable deductions to your income and avoided paying icome tax on that amount of your earnings.
